I was afraid this kind of discussion would happen, with slaves 
in two places.

I was about to answer that SMB has no meaning
to all those that are not connected to a network with Windows
machines, whereas FTP and HTTP are available everywhere,
but this is really not the point, in fact.
The question is once more about people that want to install
koffice without installing kdebase.
Should they be able to use koffice to edit files over SMB
transparently (as one would do under Windows), or should
they be required to install kdebase for this ?
I don't know.

But they have to install kdebase if they want something
to read koffice's help files anyway...

I guess it doesn't really matter in fact.
